In ancient times,Chinese people observed the natural phenomenon that some magnetic stones always pointed in a certain direction.Based on this discovery,they created the earliest form of the compass,called Sinan during the Warring States Period.Sinan was made of a magnetic stone in the shape of a ladle.When placed on a smooth plate,the ladle-shaped Sinan could rotate,and its handle would always point south. As time passed,the compass underwent improvement.In the Song Dynasty,the floating needle compass emerged.This new type of compass was more practised and easier to use.It consisted of a magnetic needle floating on water,which greatly enhanced the accuracy of navigation at sea. The compass then gradually spread from china to other parts of the world.It became an essential tool for sailors during long-distance voyages.Explorers in the Age of Discovery relied heavily on the compass to find their way across the vast oceans,opening up new trade routes and promoting cultural exchanges between different regions. 66.Which of the following is true about Sinan? A.It was invented in the Song Dynasty. B.It was made of wood in the shape of a ladle. C.Its handle always pointed south.

C.The compass had no influence on cultural exchanges.D.Magnetic stones were only found in ancient China.
